Judith Banos Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,499
  • Serves Santa Ana, CA

Originally from Mexico with a background in architecture, I discovered my true calling behind the camera at age 13. What started as a teenage passion has blossomed into Judith Baños Photography, where I've spent years documenting life's most precious moments. My architectural training gives me a unique perspective on composition and light. As a bilingual photographer, I specialize in weddings, proposals, elopements, and pet photography because I believe in preserving memories that last forever.

Judith is not just an amazing photographer she is a delight to be around. She brought a sense of peace and calm to our wedding day and her images made me and my wife cry they were so beautiful. Her images capture the true feeling of the day in a way we both felt like we were reliving the day. If you're looking for a photographer that's as fun to be with as the images she creates she's your girl!

Stephanie’s journey in photography began when her sister became engaged in 2017. This was such an emotional experience for her that what started out as a hobby quickly became a passion that she craved to share with others. For her, photography is more than just a photo or a snapshot. It’s a treasure. A priceless glimpse into the past where all the best moments of your life are preserved. Stephanie strives to deliver the perfect photos, encapsulating all the firsts, all the feels, all the memories!

As soon as I got engaged, I booked Stephanie! Before I even had any of my other vendors, I knew I needed her to document our day! From initial meeting to gallery delivery, she has been the most amazing, patient, kind, responsive, fun, hardworking, and wonderful individuals I have ever had the opportunity to work with. She truly cares about her couples and her work is truly beautiful. Take a moment to scroll through her photos and you'll fall in love like I did! She is great at catching all the moments-- candid or posed and makes you feel comfortable. I am so happy we booked her and will refer her to all my friends and family!

To future couples seeking a wedding photographer, Steven is more than just a professional behind the camera; he is an artist who paints with light, capturing the beauty, joy, and love that define a wedding. We are eternally grateful for his artistry and dedication, and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in search of not just a photographer, but a true storyteller who will elevate your special day to a level of pure magic. Unfortunately we were only able to do a pre-wedding photoshoot with him and not our wedding day due to availability. But the pre-wedding pictures are truly precious because we can include our fur baby with us. Highly recommended doing a pre-wedding shoot especially if you have fur babies. The wedding day will be too hectic and it's hard to include your pets on that day. I can't thank Steven enough for his amazing skills in capture the best moments in such short amount of time. It was only 1.5 hours of photoshoot but the results are outstanding. Steven knows exactly what to do to make us comfortable to pose and capture not just the scenery but our emotions as well. We have done multiple photoshoots so we know how hard it is to pose and get good angles on your facial expressions. By far, the photoshoot with Steven is the best experience. It was so quick and enjoyable, we did not sweat or grow tired at all. Even the groom/my husband was having a good time with Steven, and you know how annoying men are when it comes to do photoshoot ;) If the groom love the photoshoot experience, you know this photographer is hella good :) Not only he's fast and precise in taking photos, his delivery time is amazingly fast. If I have to rate Steven, I'd give him 15/10 :) absolutely incredible job!

Cassy Velazquez Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Santa Ana, CA

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

I don't know how else to say this, but my husband and I are THE most awkward people when it comes to photos. We forget how to smile, we never know where to look, and we don't know what to do with our hands... or faces. We had a different photographer for our engagement photos and I didn't like the way 99% of them came out. We looked uncomfortable and awkward. I emailed Cassy about how uncomfortable we are in front of a camera and she called me to reassure me that she would be able to give us direction and make sure all the photos turned out great. We had a tiny micro wedding on the beach during covid with just our immediate family. I hired a picnic company to set up a tiny ceremony and hors d'oeuvres. Cassy captured all the details of the set up beautifully. My in-laws wanted a coffee table book of our wedding photos, and it was so hard to pick just a few. We got so many incredible photos! Our couples shots look like something in a magazine. She made it so fun, we never felt weird or uncomfortable. Cassy had these little tips and tricks and she'd get genuine laughter and smiles out of us. There were no forced smiles or awkward faces. When I look at my photos, it brings back all the memories of laughter and joy on our special day. I'm so grateful we found her! All our photos are light, airy, and perfect. Thank you so much, Cassy!

My name is Mallory, and I am a fine art film wedding photographer based out of Southern California & available worldwide. Growing up I always had a creative mind. I felt drawn to the camera but never knew why, or that one day it would become one of my main purposes in life. I began my business in 2012 and can honestly say that I have never looked back. I would describe my style as delicate, romantic, elegant, but most importantly - timeless.

Mallory is an incredible photographer who’s talent shines through in every photo. She is so sweet, caring, and really puts in the effort to make sure everything runs smoothly while making you feel so special. She documented our connection and the love and joy we felt from our guests. Even after our gallery was delivered she checked in to make sure everything was perfect. We are so grateful for her time and everything she contributed to our engagement shoot and wedding day. Thanks to her we now have timeless photos that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Susie is from LA, and she studied molecular & cellular biology at Harvard University (along with film and animation), before getting her MS in computer science from UChicago. While we were both in engineering, deep down, we always had a passion for storytelling. And one day, we decided that life was far too short for us not to do what we loved: creating and sharing real stories.

I don't think there are words to truly express how much Anatoliy K, Susie, and team made our wedding photo dreams come true. From a perfect engagement shoot on the beach to our big day in a spring garden - the photos say it all! Each moment and detail was so perfectly captured, and made our hearts burst looking at each picture. We are truly blown away by the high-quality, attention to detail, and gorgeous compositions that came out of such a creative team. Once I saw AnatoliyK Weddings on Zola, they stood out, and they truly delivered. It was SUCH a pleasure and joy working with Anatoliy and Susie from the beginning to end.

She made the whole process feel so natural and enjoyable, which was so important on such a big day. Not only was she professional, but she went above and beyond in ways we didn’t expect. For example, when I was struggling to pin something to my dress, she immediately jumped in to help—something totally outside her job description, but she did it with a smile and made sure everything was perfect. It was those little thoughtful gestures that truly set her apart. And of course, the photos are nothing short of stunning! We absolutely love her style and the way she uses color. She made sure to capture every important moment, and we now have beautiful memories to cherish forever.

She was amazing working with both of our crazy families and from the very beginning I knew that she’d do a great job capturing the special moments of our special day. She worked with everyone and did a great job explaining what everyone needed to do to get a perfect shot. She also was absolutely wonderful with our 2 year old son who would’ve climbed in the car and went home with her if he could.
